-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Without enthusiasm, hard work and toil,
no path to a great future appears.
By learning together, taking action together
and striving together to share this Buddhism with others,
let's raise new talented people who are full of ability!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"A hundred years of practise in the Land of Perfect Bliss cannot compare to the benefit gained from one day's practise in the impure world. Two thousand years of propagating Buddhism during the Former and Middle Days of the Law are inferior to an hour of propagation in the Latter Day of the Law."
(On Repaying Debts of Gratitude - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, page 736) Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, September 16th, 2013

--- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
It is because of our pioneer members' selfless dedication
that we now have a new era for worldwide kosen-rufu.
Let's make a point of expressing our utmost appreciation to
all of those wonderful senior members
who are brimming with the treasures of the heart.
I hope that all our younger leaders of kosen-rufu will
learn from and properly inherit their most noble SGI spirit!
